Chapter Twenty-Six: The Autumn Election Begins
Early the next morning, the students of "Polestar Liao" entered the conference hall together, and then divided into two teams and entered the A and B venues respectively. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although the competition started at 11 o'clock, there were a lot of ingredients and tools prepared in advance, and it was not like a "one-on-one" halberd, and there were other people who could help them carry things, so basically everyone started to work at 9 o'clock.
At half past ten, most of the audience has already entered, all the first-year students and most of the second-year students, lecturers from various departments, and even many members of the Ten Masters will be the audience.
At eleven o'clock, the emcee's voice rang out on time, and Rei Kawashima, who was known as the first dragon set of the halberd, went to Group B, so the emcee of Group A was a new face after a long absence-
"Hello everyone! I'm the master of ceremonies in the A division of today's preliminaries, Yuai Sasaki! The contestants are ready, right? The three-hour preliminaries will start soon! The contestants can submit to the judges as long as they finish the cooking in three hours, and then the five judges will each have the right to score 20 points, with a total of 100 points! The top four contestants will be able to enter the finals!"
Compared with Rei Kawashima's scheming, Yuai doesn't have that kind of deliberately cute sense of artificiality, but looks a little timid, quite a bit of the style of the little girl next door.
Although there were five judges, it was not until the start of the competition was announced that the seats in the middle of the five judges in Group A were still empty, and no one was seated after more than half an hour......
The person who came was a young woman wearing a white long skirt dress, with a good figure, and a beautiful mole under the corner of her right eye, although according to the numerology of the face, whoever is born with this mole is destined to suffer from love in this life and this life, trapped by love, and easy to cry (such as a black cat, such as Ritsuko, and such as a lucky e with two brushes), but the halberd is a delicacy after all, and this setting is just used as a decoration.
Although it was late, his attitude was still aggressive, and he ridiculed Ruishan's "reminder", and Ruishan could only whisper a few words about it.
After all, this "Chimatari Natsuya" is the contemporary helmsman of HOB Food, occupying the 200 billion yen curry market every year, and is known as the "Curry Queen" with his sister "Chimatari Orie"!
Since Chitari Natsuya is in Group A, I think Chitamari Ori is in Group B......
But after all, I want to give Yuanyue a face, with this thought, Chitaku Natsuya picked up the microphone: "Listen, the curry industry in this country began to expand after World War II, and so far, curry has fully matured into a national food......! But it made me feel very bored. ”
"As a business owner, and as a person who loves curry very much, I'm always looking for ideas that will create the future of Japanese curry – come on, let me see! Curry dishes that will make me shudder with excitement......"
"This ...... That's too difficult......"
"The other party is the one who is familiar with all kinds of curries in ancient and modern times......"
"You want us to serve something that will satisfy that person?"
There was an instant uproar in the venue, but this made the playfulness on Chitatsu Natsuya's face even more obvious, she only said a word, but it had already exposed those mediocre talents who were not enough to be noticed, and then, her eyes had turned to those geniuses who were unmoved and still focused on their dishes......
Although the menu is presented in the blink of an eye when you read the manga, the truth is that any dish requires at least an hour or more of elaboration.
It's not a home-cooked restaurant after all, it's a real competition.
As a rule, except for ingredients that need to be matured for several days, any ingredients with a special style and creativity must be prepared on site, and dashi, an essential ingredient for high-end cuisine, can only be boiled on the spot, and a pot of dashi, not to mention the laborious top soup, even the most ordinary dashi, whether in China, France, Japan or Russia, there is not an hour to think of out of the pot.
Of course, if you are willing to use the standard chicken soup or bonito soup, you can use it directly, but such a soup will undoubtedly not satisfy the judges with the most discerning tastes in the audience.
Because it is a curry theme, the competition has just begun, there are all kinds of pungent, or fiery aromas from the front of the stove burst out, although the title is curry, but in fact, it is the application of spices, whether it is mapo tofu or boiled fish, or even Siwu soup This kind of medicinal food, can be placed in this assessment, Feng Xue even thinks that if he can bring out a fish belly with eight heji as a dipping sauce, maybe he can also pass the test.
But what he wants is to advance, in this regard, fish belly, that is, sashimi, has a natural disadvantage, after all, it is just a dish that brings out the taste of the ingredients themselves, as long as Feng Xue can't master the stunt like the Luohan Crystal Chop, even a pufferfish is difficult to have a place on this occasion.
The match lasted for three hours, but the real showdown seemed to begin the moment the first smell of spice dissipated.
After about an hour and ten minutes, a third of the time of the game, the first contestant had already finished his meal.
In this kind of large-scale competition, it is not established that the latter will win (although the plot has repeatedly slapped him in the face).
On the contrary, the first person to submit the paper has a certain first-strike advantage.
After all, the judges' appetite is limited, and curry belongs to the kind of food with a heavier taste and a great impact on the palate, even if you only eat one bite of each dish, the curry for 30 people is enough to slowly paralyze the judges' palate.
Like in the original book, the situation that the final submission of the paper can still make the judges eat a fine light is impossible to happen in reality, not to mention anything else, no matter the AB area, there are so many or eight contestants' dishes that can touch the judges, even if the other more than 20 people don't eat a bite of the dishes, each judge has to eat more than eight servings of curry.
And these judges are either older or female, it is obviously difficult to eat so many things, and the dishes in the original book are so solid, I am afraid that in reality, a bowl of food can be supported by people with smaller food in the south.
Of course, the half-plane has its own power to justify itself, and in this world of gastronomy, there is a type of medicine called "digestive medicine" As long as you eat a tablet, you can quickly consume food, but the paralysis of taste is difficult to eliminate (for example, if you eat a plate of mapo tofu first, and then let you eat a bowl of Hainan chicken rice, you will definitely feel that Hainan chicken rice has no taste, even if the level of Hainan chicken rice is much higher than mapo tofu, which is determined by the taste mechanism, and the spicy dishes themselves have a decisive advantage in the competition competition).
However, the first attack advantage also requires the dish itself to be above the average, and the one in front of you...... It's just a general.
Sure enough, among the five judges, four only gave single-digit results, and Chitata Natsuya, known as the queen of curry, directly gave a big zero egg.
At this time, a third of the game has been played, and most of the contestants have begun to show their fangs even if they have not finished the cooking, and the aroma of light or heavy, strong or light has burst out one after another, just with a slightly stimulating fragrance, it makes the audience saliva rise, but if it is a guy like Ryo Hayama, who is born with an amazing sense of smell, he can easily judge the player who really has the strength by virtue of the aroma - that is the few people who showed the strongest spice control ability at this time: Mito Yumei, Sakaki Ryoko, Zenji Marui, Jun Itakesaki, Misaku Pleiades......
In addition, there is something that can't be judged now.,Kohei Sojin's cuisine.,It doesn't seem to have exuded any aroma.,And Kurokiba's cool cuisine.,At this time, the aroma is only at the level of "heroes", and it is obvious that it has not yet reached the stage of exerting force.
"Let's fight!" In this environment, Feng Xue's food demon seemed to be indescribably excited, and a strange momentum emanated from Feng Xue's body, if Feng Xue hadn't deliberately suppressed it, I am afraid that his hair would dance like the tentacles of a tentacle monster.
Even so, there were many students with keen senses who felt the difference in the atmosphere, and their eyes drifted to Feng Xue for a moment.
"There is no aroma?Is it a strategy to close the aroma, or has it not entered the spice processing stage at all?" With the nose of the god, Ye Shan Liang could clearly perceive the degree of spices in everyone's cooking in the venue, and in his olfactory world, among the thirty players present at the moment, I am afraid that only five or six of them can fight with him, and it is only a battle.
But this grasp was shaken for the first time in Feng Xue's unhurried movements, in his sight, Feng Xue was adding some purple powder that looked like spices to the pot from time to time, but even Ye Shan Liang couldn't detect what kind of spice the powder was.
Ye Shanliang shrugged his nose slightly, putting aside his doubts for the time being, "Strange spices, but if you want to beat me, you still have a long way to go!"
As a handful of leaf-shaped spices were thrown into the pot, a strong but non-smoking aroma burst out instantly, and the audience in the entire venue was suddenly shocked, and the original scene of being divided by the heroes instantly became a standout.
On the judges' bench, Chinatari Natsuya, who was originally dismissive of the dishes of many students in a row, couldn't help but moan softly.
After that, he said embarrassedly: "It seems、There seem to be some dishes worth looking forward to......" said and stared at Ryo Hayama deadly.
However, Ryo Hayama's dish was divided into two parts, and the staple dish of grilled naan was not finalized, so after arousing the appetite of the judges, he did not immediately present the work!
This made the next few students even more unlucky, not only Xia Ya gave 0 points, but the scores of the other judges were also lower!
Obviously, the judges have fallen into the anticipation of Hayama's cooking, and unless there is a dish that is not too inferior, the score will be reduced due to the sense of anticipation, and for a while, several other students who want to submit their works also hesitate......
In such a slightly embarrassing scene, a person's movements suddenly broke the peace, and as one audience after another noticed him, a scream instantly sounded in the venue......
"Ahh
